[alanihawaii123]

They obviously so love what they do. =D it's hard to hide passion like that. 

[alphasxsignal]

Nice

[moonshinersdaughter1]

Excellent Guys !!! But you cant beat the original x

[layla251]

@aalperuzun i just ate turkey yesterday.... how does that feel

[HundeskatexD]

@aalperuzun smoking voice?i really dont think so its a screamers voice(: hes straight edge by the way :D

[tsuki586]

worth dying for...creedence :D

[laugh0at0you]

240p... we meet again.

[freimanfisk]

2:16, I smiled from ear to ear when I saw that smile...

[conkerjb09]

Very good cover.

[GuitarGuyJHx]

Can anyone check my cover of this version? would mean a lot thanks <3

[LEIF3331]

This version is better than the origanal song I think and I always like the origanal song best

[artanay]

luv luv LOVE IT !!!!

[KingDrakeskullnl]

There are 4 people still standing in the rain... XD

[noseknows21]

Wow!  They did a good job with this.

[fgcarva1]

Message to people who comment on Tim's "punk" style, punk has no style, it has stereotypes, he has a mullet, oh well too fucking bad, I hate people who think punks have to wear tight jeans with Vans and have fucking mohawks...

[darthplegous]

can someone tell me the last chord he holds, at the very end?

[TheIbanez21601]

@darthplegous It's a G chord

[countjulu]

@TheIbanez21601 yeah i know, i figured it out about 5minutes after my comment. but thanks anyway, not many people help others.

[darthplegous]

@TheIbanez21601 that was me on my brothers account srry

[hunnygotowned]

aw he's so cute haha

[marmalade999]

This is beautiful.

[zZzDeathNotezZz]

i hate country...but with his voice he could make me love it

[MadDistortion]

@zZzDeathNotezZz You should fucking slap yourself.... That isn't country that's old school rock n roll

[zZzDeathNotezZz]

@MadDistortion heyi ment just in general hurrrrrr

[Jimmyceltic91]

Despite being a good cover it is light years away from CCR's.

John Fogerty's voice is fuckin' dynamite!

[Ostarara]

Nothing can beat the original, but this sounds bloody well good. His voice fits the song.

[fgcarva1]

and this wasnt much after Zach joined... probably a couple months or something.

[DmitryJah]

one great band playing cover on another great band - NICE!

[droagan1]

have yall ever seen a mullet? lol

that is a mullet. not a mohawk... not a frocket....

its a str8 up mullet, as a child of the late 80s early 90s ...i think i can reconize a mullet on a badass singer

[1blackdeath51501]

@droagan1 why would a punk have a mullet?

exactly its a non-gelled "whatever you want to call the stuff you put to make it stay up" mohawk....

[andjustice793]

pretty good but fogerty owns this song still

[lifehouselover16]

aww look how young they were here! Tim looks so different now. Im not a fan of the mullet but he can pull it off. Tim sounds AmAzing

[FlawedHopes]

good cover, terrible mullet

[penile1]

It's not a mullet; it's a mohawk laying flat.

[zuendapp94]

not bad, but creedence is better

[jakethesnakee93]

great cover to a great song

[stoopidnerd75]

Zach has a nice voice too :)

BUT TIM PWNS ALL

[TheZackAttack23]

@stoopidnerd75 DAMN YEAH !!!

[alanihawaii123]

@stoopidnerd75: Chris had a good voice too. If you find the acoustic version of "Paper Wings" you'll see. =)

[SharinganLust]

It's weird because he has such a different voice, but it fits in almost anything.

[offspringfrak]

fucking great! x)

[SmookyoO]

so amazing

[droagan]

wow look at that smile.... tim is having a blast

[KoHKersch]

@droagan he just fucked up the chord that's all :D I'd smile too

[darkvirus37]

@KoHKersch hold on, when did Tim mess up?? i didnt hear anything wrong

[JoshvsHarrison]

Tim your awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[Whenitsthrough]

This is awesome! One of my new favs!

[OverSlyZed]

Credence is one of my fav old band :)

[Ebeet0FAN]

Hardcore punkrock goes accustic . Still awesome .

[droagan]

whats with the mullet?

i'm glad his hair isnt like that anymore

lol looks like Joe Dirt

[ryanjohnston82]

Its what you call a mo hawk when its not spiked up!!!

[droagan]

thats no mohawk bud

thats a mullet

[MrDakotaheer]

its actually called a frocket

[droagan]

a frocket?

look at it close man

thats a str8 up mullet

[JoehPops]

bit of a boring song, alright though

[ryanjohnston82]

they also didnt write the song and they also do an amazing job of covering the song!

[TheNenyo]

retards u could call it metal pop rap jazz, it dont fuckin matter cause there gonna sound the same no matter what genre u put them in, but lol i admire ur devotion to proving eachother wrong

[trommerolf]

Who cares what type of music they play, enjoy the songs damnit

[StrikeAgainst17]

I call them Post-Punk. I feel they're more melodic than "classical punk", but they still most certainly do fall in the punk category. I wouldn't lump them in with The Lawrence Arms or Anti-Flag, though.

[layla251]

wow what a debate....

they consider themselves punk

[destroyer841]

/watch?v=GhSk4jV0SnA

Maybe you could tell me what genre that Rise Against song neatly fits into then?

[destroyer841]

I guess you could say they're post hardcore :\

[ExileCanadaMetal]

i like the CCR version better. but this cover is fucking great.

[droagan]

Rise Against blows ccr right out of the clear-water

no doubt

Rise Against rocks

[ExileCanadaMetal]

no they dont. youre just some moron who thinks that since youre a huge rise against fan. they are pop rock and wannabe punk rock.

[RiseAgainstFan741]

ok fuckhead you think your mr punk king dont you dont ever call them pop

no pop artist ever sings bout politcal and ethical stances in theer lyrics

you can call them alternative call them pop and ill pop you in the fucking face

[ExileCanadaMetal]

yea youll pop me in the face what ever you say tough guy.

they are a pop punk band. btw it is their.

[RiseAgainstFan741]

ok grammar freak are you gay or something

explain to me how there pop punk

[ExileCanadaMetal]

how would me correcting your spelling make me gay? are you really that fucking dumb?

they are popular, just because they dress the punk part doesnt mean they are.

[destroyer841]

I just linked a song that they did early on in there career that is so clearly hardcore and you disregard it? They "dress" the part but aren't? What does that even mean? Are you saying that because their newer stuff is more pop oriented or because they're signed to a major label or something? I just don't understand it. The freaking Clash were signed to a major label and no one batted an eye (and they got a pretty penny for it I might add). What is punk? It shouldn't exclusionary.

[ExileCanadaMetal]

the clash were pop punk as well.

[destroyer841]

You realize now my eye is twitching in anger right? Are you a troll or are you deluded to the point where you believe hardcore is the only true version of punk?

[ExileCanadaMetal]

you know i don't care if your eye is twitching in anger right? i mean if you are that upset over a post on the internet i think you should get some help honestly.

and hardcore is a bit different then punk rock.

but then again i dont expect some one who thinks rise against is a punk band to understand that.

[destroyer841]

Oh please masterful decider of all things punk, please lead me in your perfect genre labeling! You're so intelligent and well versed in punk music, you know with your shitty metal band list of influences as diverse as Pantera AND Iron Maiden!

[ExileCanadaMetal]

also metallica and megadeth and even judas preist. and just because i am in a metal band doesnt mean i dont know punk rock.

so keep crying about my post since its obvious its bothering you enough to give you a twitch.

i never said rise against sucked never once. i simply said they are not a punk band (my opinion).

you want to bash that be my guest i honestly dont care but to act like i dont know punk rock just because i play in a metal band is retarded.

ever hear of thrash metal?

[destroyer841]

And yet you don't tell me what a perfect example of straight punk is.

[ExileCanadaMetal]

fast, hard-edged music, typically with short songs, stripped-down instrumentation, and often political, anti-establishment lyrics. Punk embraces a do it yourself ethic.

punk is dead.

its not even remotely the same bands, lifestyle, shows.

so is that good enough for you or would you like me to throw some bands out there for you?

[ExileCanadaMetal]

pop punk - power-pop melodies and chord changes with speedy punk tempos and loud guitars.

thats why i consider rise against a pop punk band. they may have political views in their lyrics but that does not make them a punk band.

so if the lyrics are political does that make green day punk?

[ExileCanadaMetal]

you want real punk listen to cirlce jerks, black flag, minor threat, dri, pennywise, bad religion.

like i said rise against is a pop punk band. lyrics mean shit.

[destroyer841]

ROFL. Rise Against is like a slightly heaving produced version of Bad Religion. Albeit with less erudite and more personal lyrics. Anyway they're both good bands and Rise Against WAS hardcore or at least melodic hardcore, now they're a bit more pop oriented to be sure. Appeal To Reason might have been my least favorite, Siren Songs is still the best.

[destroyer841]

slightly heavier produced*

Wow I can't spell.

[ExileCanadaMetal]

they were never hardcore not even melodic hardcore.

maybe punk in the beginning of their career but not hardcore.

[MOUSEBOWEN]

Waaaooouu I love your hair.,Not really but thats a nice song and great voise you guys did good.

[lasagnediarra]

i cant stop listening to this song!

[Spideyfan108]

I have the same guitar as tim is using there :) Jasmine Takamine.

[edyeo123]

no. that's a taylor.

[Spideyfan108]

Yeah, I realised this afterwards when I discovered that more or less all he uses is taylor acoustics, but mine looks very very similar to it.

and thanks for being imformative in a nice way, its hard to find decent people on youtube.

[edyeo123]

haha. no worries:)

[BlinKnCollin]

Doesn't he play Guild ???

At the concert in Wiesbaden he played a Guild Acoustic....

[jexon213]

Things could have changed in 2 years...

[mrsuavelukez12]

good cover!

[marciojeferson]

a bit outta tempo at times? wtf, this new guitar player is no big deal

[EricBallard]

[Crazy4Games3]

[WebDebil]

[pachieterna]

[breed09]

[Gproducshizz]

Sounds like a Country song. He should become a Country singer too. Lol.

[chickenleggz102]

dont even joke like that :O

[Bexpunk]

Tim McIlrath is the most beautiful person with the most beautiful voice.

[Goodnamesbeentaken]

i liked the original better, but this version is still amazing

[rancid1987]

he has such a wonderful voice :D

[screamcore18]

rise against should so release an album of all the covers and stuff they did...im trying to get hold of everything theyve done...and all thats left is this song, the cover of minor threat, and a couple of acoustic covers of songs on siren...i fear i will never get them though:(

[frogkiller54]

[screamcore18]

[cannabiscze]

[jonjonjj]

Tim looks like he's enjoying playing the song. See, that's what everyone needs to do. Just enjoy what he or she plays, and have fun with it.

[Cr4zyg00d]

this is just amazing and sounds so good. Rise Against in the best band ever. Every Song is full of meaning and sounds great

[angerisagift07]

doesnt he sing the verses the wrong way round?

great cover though.

[plumbbumb420]

Nope sounds right to me =)

[thealexmannproject]

i love tim so much

[musicismyysalvation]

those are taylors, both of them

[slapslappopslap]

yeah it was definately a taylor when he played swing life away in nz and i got his guitar pick. haha.

[slapslappopslap]

I'm pretty sure Tim uses Taylor Acoustics.

[ringishpil]

Thru years Tim was playing Les Paul and SG. My favorite one is the white Les Paul :P!

[jammcy]

les paul is a guitar shape as opposed to mistake. happens a lot.

[crusa2]

what brand of guitar do they use

[mmdgirard]

im pretty sure tim is playing a gibson. and yeah ive never seen them play anything but gibsons! aha

[salivajiva]

Awsome song. period....alot of baby in the manger, noah's arc brew ha. but it still struch a chord

[4187278]
